TruColor Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I hope this is OK to post here - if not, it can certainly be moved. As most of you know, Pantone Textile colors actually have goofy descriptions attached to them, and if you take the actual Textile colors and list them by their Textile descriptions, the results are kinda fun. So what I thought I'd do, is list the descriptions, and you all can try to guess who the team is. You'll win a No-Prize (Marvel fans will know what I'm talkin' about), but it's all for entertainment purposes only.I only have complete sets of Pantone Textiles for three major leagues - NFL, MLB and the NBA (only a couple of NHL teams at this point), so we'll just go with those three.OK - first one - remember, this is just from the NFL, MLB or NBA, and I'm leaving White out of it (it equates to "Bright White"):LicoriceDeep BlueSilver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
